Flow Water With Arduino Uno

This document provides code and instructions for using an Arduino Uno to measure liquid flow rate using a water flow sensor. It includes: 1. A circuit diagram showing how to connect the water flow sensor to an Arduino Uno. 2. Arduino code to initialize the sensor, count pulses from the sensor interrupt, calculate flow rate and total volume, and output results to the serial monitor. 3. The code disables interrupts while calculating flow to accurately measure the time between readings.
